Not taking on any more freelance work until new year now, folks!
My day job is ramping up a bit of late and I'd like to spend some time with family and friends (but also recover from this horrendous burnout...).
Will be back on the market in Jan though!

So I am running the London Lea Valley 50km in March and trying to raise some money for Step Forward - a youth centre in Tower Hamlets, Kiddo attends their LGBTQIA+ group and it's been such a brilliant and supportive space for them, which feels so important when trans youth are under constant attack.

Trying to carve out some time to actually play games not just write about them (even if it often from 11pm onwards) which means I can finally catch up on the hype around Blue Prince and OFF.

Gotten a few heartfelt e-mails from developers lately asking me to check out their game, including a key in the e-mail... and then I check the Steam page and find this kind of AI disclosure. Makes me question if the e-mail I thought was heartfelt was even written by the dev. Truly toxic to your game
i take frenzy damage every time i see someone go "well i just use it for the boring stuff". what are you TALKING about? if it's boring or unimportant, why are you putting it in? NPC dialogue is fertile ground for worldbuilding, creating verisimilitude, conveying important information, and hijinks!!
Buy a solo indie dev's game because I want to support them.
Find out it uses OpenAI to write "non-important NPC dialogue".

I wish I didn’t have to share this. But the BBC has decided to censor my first Reith Lecture.
They deleted the line in which I describe Donald Trump as “the most openly corrupt president in American history.” /1
